Once again, a game showing just how ahead of the tech curve Access Software was, but unlike some of their past games where the tech came first and the gameplay came second, here, the gameplay is pretty solid and while the acting is campy you get a pretty fun story with a lot of strange twists and turns.
This is also probably one of the few inventory-based adventure games with a built-in help system to get you out of issues. Just make sure you NEVER touch that help button unless you mean to...

Additional Information and Corrections:
Here's a link to Under a Killing Moon on the Good Old Games website: www.gog.com/gam...
A new Tex Murphy game called "Tesla Effect" came out very soon after this video first went live, so... my statement that there's only "five" games in the series ended up becoming outdated rather quickly. You can find this game for sale on Steam here: store.steampow...
There's actually a bit of an exploit with the hint system in that, you can just save your game, get the hint you need, then reload your save. Suffice to say, this doesn't help when you accidentally press the hint button and haven't saved for over 10 minutes. :P
I noticed after rendering this week's episode that the footage wasn't nearly as bad as actually playing the game in DOSBox, then I noticed my video drivers had seemed to forget about my special DOSBox settings, since you want to disable vsyncing when running DOSBox. However, after making this change it still didn't make the game play any better in terms of framerate consistency. :/
At the end of the video I meant to say that this game is the first in the series to have full motion video. I've been told the prior Tex Murphy games do indeed have voice acting. :P
